Last minute Olympic fun : Fri Jul 27, 2012 6:27 pm  

Let's assume the favourites - Steve Redgrave, Daley Thompson or Sir Roger Bannister don't light the flame. Who might it be (serious of daft)?

For me, maybe:

The guy who won the VC and was on Strictly come Dancing
Our 'Enry and Muhammad Ali together
Tony Blair
Maggie Thatcher
The Queen
Not a human being

Got a feeling it might be the Queen, jubilee year and all.

I like Beckham, but no.

I forgotten about Henry!!!

Mind you, Lineker just said to Redgrave "you've already carried the torch" and hastily added he wasn't sure if he'd be carrying it later tonight. Double bluff or let the cat out?

Phil Taylor should throw a flaming dart at a dartboard shaped cauldron.

Maybe the flat - top missile systems are not for defence purposes but to light the cauldron?
